Mark, Thank you as well for sharing your experience. Also, for Kudret, et al-I had an exchange w/ Eric regarding the orientation and decided on the wide side. Here's what he had to say: "Regarding the driver > mounting, if we do the driver on the wide panel, > there is a very slight 1db bump in output between > 600Hz-1200Hz (basically mid-range)." Hope this helps, Paul

are you looking for a good deal on a tonearm
paul cbc replied to joessportster's topic in 2-Channel Home Audio
This is a nice tonearm. The two weights allow for a range of cartridges to be used and the VTA adjuster is a clear advantage over the stock Rega/Moth arms. Paul -
I agree. FOAM is the way to go. You can buy 4x8 sheets of varying thickness and make up a nice crate for whatever you are shipping.

Jay, I've used 2 different aids with good results: 1. Dawn dish washing liquid. Good old soap and (warm) water. Remove the faceplate and soak/wipe with a clean rag. 2. For tougher stuff, not removed by #1, "Krud Kutter". Use the same way as above. Like I said this has provided me good results. ***Please try a small corner or spot on your faceplate before going "whole hog". Hate to have you wipe away lettering, etc.. Good luck! Paul

Joe, As others have noted-they look good! You can check them out in person before buying-listen to them and inpect cosmetic condition. Saving at least $100 in potential shipping costs. Nice deal. Good luck! Paul

Didn't know the Nitty Gritty was selling for that much! A couple less expensive alternatives: Generic Nitty Gritty: http://www.audioadvisor.com/store/productdetail.asp?sku=NGRD3&product_name=Record%20Doctor%20Model%20III%20Record%20Cleaning%20Machine Supply your own shop vac: http://www.kabusa.com/frameset.htm?/index.htm Good luck!

I think if you are using a stock vacuum and fluid, the VPI is a good choice. If you are using the Disc Doctor brushes and fluid(highly recommended!), the Nitty Gritty 1.0 is all you need-you're just using the vac. Tried to search and find Allan S.'s record cleaning regimen. If someone or Allan could post it here that would be worth considering. 2 different paths. Both have yeilded good results. Keep on it. Record cleaning is HIGHLY rewarding! Paul

Santuxxi, Welcome to the forum-you are off to a great start! A number of folks here (including myself) will recommend vintage gear as it provides a LOT of bang for your buck. The caveat being it is older equipment, it needs to have some work done to bring it up to specs for safe and pleasureable enjoyment. In vintage, the Scott, Fisher, and Dynaco names are a good place to start. The Dynaco that member "TigerwoodKhorns" offered looks like a pretty good deal. A couple other ideas: -Contact forum member Craig Nosvlaves: http://www.nosvalves.com/ See if he has anything used for sale. Craig works on vintage equipment and builds his own line of amps. -In the solid state area the Harman Kardon 430, 730, & 930 receivers are forum faves that will mate well with your Heresies, and set you back about $100. Good luck, and let us know what you end up going with. Paul
